Creates an object in the GTA world.
Syntax
object createObject ( int modelId, float x, float y, float z, [ float rx, float ry, float rz, bool isLowLOD = false ] )
OOP Syntax Help! I don't understand this!
- Method: Object(...)
Required Arguments
- modelId: a whole integer specifying the GTA:SA object model ID.
- x: a floating point number representing the X coordinate on the map.
- y: a floating point number representing the Y coordinate on the map.
- z: a floating point number representing the Z coordinate on the map.
Optional Arguments
NOTE: When using optional arguments, you might need to supply all arguments before the one you wish to use. For more information on optional arguments, see optional arguments.
- rx: a floating point number representing the rotation about the X axis in degrees.
- ry: a floating point number representing the rotation about the Y axis in degrees.
- rz: a floating point number representing the rotation about the Z axis in degrees.
- isLowLOD: a bool value specifying if the object will be low LOD. A low LOD object has no collision and a longer draw distance.
Returns

Server-only Example 1This example creates an object when the resource starts:
function mapLoad(name)
-- create an object at a specified position with a specified rotation
createObject(1337, 5540.6654, 1020.55122, 1240.545, 90, 0, 0)
end
addEventHandler("onResourceStart", resourceRoot, mapLoad)

Server-only Example 2This example creates an object near the player who write /createObject in the chat:
-- this function is called whenever someone types 'createObject' in the console:
function createObjectCommand( thePlayer, commandName )
if ( thePlayer ) then
local x, y, z = getElementPosition ( thePlayer ) -- get the player's position
-- create a Object next to the player:
local theObject = createObject ( 980, x + 2, y + 2, z, 0, 0, 0 )
if ( theObject ) then -- check if the object was created successfully
outputConsole ( "Object created successfully.", thePlayer )
else
outputConsole ( "Failed to create the object.", thePlayer )
end
end
end
addCommandHandler ( "createObject", createObjectCommand )
